2. INSTALL FRONT CORNER ULTRASONIC SENSOR RETAINER (except Sport Package)
NOTICE:
-
Installing the front corner ultrasonic sensor retainer with some double-sided tape remaining may cause poor adhesion. Perform this procedure until sufficiently removed it.
-
Make sure to use a cloth when removing. Using a screwdriver, etc., may cause damage and poor adhesion.
HINT:
Use the same procedure for both front corner ultrasonic sensor retainers.
(a) Clean the front bumper cover surface.
(1) Remove the double-sided tape from the front bumper cover.
(2) Wipe off any tape adhesive residue with cleaner.
(b) Cover the sensor installation hole form the outside of the bumper cover with a 23 mm (0.91 in.) square piece of tape. | |
(c) Using a brush or felt, apply primer or equivalent to the front corner ultrasonic sensor retainer installation area.
NOTICE:
-
Replace the brush or felt if it is dirty or has become hardened.
-
Keep any painted surface free from primer.
-
If the primer contacts a painted surface, it may leave light primer marks. Therefore, use protective tape when using liquid primer.
-
Do not touch surfaces to which primer has been applied until the front corner ultrasonic sensor retainer has been attached.
